-i>ÀÃ Bullón used the Sabbath pulpit to help empha- size several central themes of seminar study. The well-attended seminars, held by soul-winning leaders and evangelists from across the United States, helped delegates focus on how to give more interesting Bible studies, how to help Bible students follow through with decisions for Christ, how to answer common objections raised by Bible students, and how to adapt new, audiovisual tech- nology to public and personal evangelism. “I am extremely impressed,” said Ebenezer Chambi, an LA Adventist physician who holds a weekly radio show in Spanish. “This Festival is like a camp meeting, but itʼs different in an impor- tant way. At camp meetings, we spend a lot of time socializing, and thatʼs needed. But here, we were focused on learning. The church needs times like this for intensive learning and training.” 6 Ê/iV }Þ “One of the areas of study was how to use au- diovisual techniques in preaching the gospel—like the ʻHope for the Homelandʼ meetings planned this month,” says Orduño. “Within days of the Festival, we had commit- ments from most of our Spanish churches in the Northwest to use the DVD technology and begin evangelistic meetings, in Spanish, on Sept. 13. “And itʼs interesting to note that the North Pacific Union had the largest single delega- tion—nearly 180 persons—out of the total of 1,100 from across the United States. One Noé and the evangelistic team gathers for a photo with baptismal candidates. factor in that number is that the North Pacific Union Conference laymen and pastors are studying hard, preparing paid all registration fees for the for up to 50 series of “Esperanza Para el Nuevo delegates.
